A top price for Kenji Yoshida - as previously expected
The work La Vie (No. y 8) by Kenji Yoshida was sold in the THE W.R. BURGE COLLECTION auction at Christies in Sydney in March 2006. The price achieved of AUD 11,950.00 (€ 7,053.44) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as AUD 10,000.00 – 15,000.00. Even if this result could not surprise positively, La Vie (No. y 8) is the most expensive artwork by Kenji Yoshida that we have observed at auctions so far.
Ein Spitzenpreis mit Ansage
Die Arbeit La Vie (No. y 8) von Kenji Yoshida wurde im März 2006 in der Auktion THE W.R. BURGE COLLECTION bei Christies in Sydney versteigert. Der dabei erzielte Preis von AUD 11.950,00 (€ 7.053,44) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit AUD 10.000,00 – 15.000,00 angegeben worden. Auch wenn das Ergebnis damit nicht positiv überraschen konnte, ist La Vie (No. y 8) das teuerste Kunstwerk von Kenji Yoshida, das wir bisher bei Auktionen beobachtet haben.
